i start my first gunpla by this.

This one just reached my hands, just for sharing:




My 1st and hopefully last Metal Build....

Regarding painting, my method is not to snapfit first then look at what color to put on each part.

for me, i read the manual, look at the parts on the runner, then decide what type of color to put on (masking option as well, if applicable).
Then the normal procedure of remove parts from runner, sanding, etc

then do the painting and coating. Final step, assemble it.
